I just came back to Singpaore for a few months, working in a music school in Singapore. I got $2500 per month and is required to work 44hrs a week not including any breaks.

Am I being underpaid? I did check with the boss, he insists that this is the rate in Singapore.
44hrs week not including breaks is normal but $2500 is low. You probably should be getting about double of that. Nevertheless, what are you exactly working as in the music school? Teacher? Teach what?
